What really concerns me is that some ISPs these days are assuming that
given that "best practices" are not mandatory, creating "bad habits" for some
revenue gain it's OK.
We all will be better if they stop using the DNS for what it is not
and we focus
investment and engineering talent to create new *real* services and
improve existing ones.
